russian army in defeating the nazi germany its for the first time made such a strong texan that. the main burden of the war was on the shoulders of the russian army and that of the russian people and the demonstration of this new military hardware is also very impressive aurore said there was a tremendous sound and. shocks coming on the red square and i can tell you that those tracks were specially equipped with a rubberized padding to destroy the asphalt if that was without the padding. would be a completely different picture. but that's been going on for seventy three years of course though that asphalt has seen quite some. definite quite some action. a lot. people overlook the contribution that the soviet people made to the second world war they war they were hit by hardest work day oh definitely nobody lost so many lives as we said it was about twenty six million people and actually the soviet union fought against the so called united europe because actually most european countries were and many european divisions were also part of the force. and looking at our screens now we
